Critic Reviews for Gecko Gods
Gecko Gods is a big adventure for the smalls paws of an unlikely hero.
I'm sad that Gecko Gods didn't ultimately resonate much with me. It's a game with clear indie charm and care poured into it, but also one that never clicks in terms of puzzles, platforming, or exploration. The presentation is nice, but it's also held back by many technical hiccups, both cosmetic and core progression-based alike. The devs do seem eager to keep improving this one, but it unfortunately wasn't quite ready for release.
The Good Beautiful cel-shaded visuals Excellent soundtrack Relaxed gameplay The Bad Minor visual issues Some movement issues
Featuring a cute lizard protagonist and an imaginative archipelago of puzzles, Gecko Gods is just too rough around the edges to earn its stripes. At its best, it emulates the same wonderful feeling of free exploration you get from the Zelda series, but these moments struggle to shine through frustrating controls and low graphical fidelity.
As a whole, Gecko Gods is a very charming game that ticks all the right boxes in what makes a good open-world puzzle adventure game.
A relaxing puzzle adventure where climbing, exploration, and discovery shine
Fun 3D puzzle adventure in which you'll explore a mysterious island chain... as a gecko!
3D platformers don't get much more relaxing or stylish than Gecko Gods and for that, it really stands out as something quite special. 🦎
